Abstract

Objective: We aimed to present our experience with rhomboid flap reconstruction, which is a simple technique, in breast cancer patients who underwent breast-conserving surgery. Methods: We reviewed the medical records of 13 patients with breast cancer who underwent rhomboid flap reconstruction. The patients were evaluated for tumor size, safe surgical margin, and other clinical and pathological features. Results: The mean age of the patients was 43.1 years (range: 28–69 years). The mean tumor diameter was 30.8 mm (range: 15–60 mm). The mean of the safe margin of resection was evaluated to be 17.8 mm (range: 5–30 mm). Re-excision was required for one patient in the same session. Conclusion: Rhomboid flap reconstruction can facilitate the applicability of breast-conserving surgery in early breast cancer patients with large tumor-to-breast-size ratio or tumors close to the skin.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada meme koruyucu cerrahi yapılan meme kanseri hastalarında basit bir teknik olan rhomboid flep rekonstrüksiyonuna ait deneyimimizi sunmak amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem ve Gereçler: Rhomboid flep rekonstrüksiyonu yapılmış 13 meme kanserli hastanın kayıtları incelendi. Hastalar tümör boyutu, sağlam cerrahi sınır, diğer klinik ve patolojik özelliklerine göre değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Hastaların ortalama yaşı 43.1 idi (28-69). Ortalama tümör çapı 30.8 mm (15-60), ortalama sağlam cerrahi sınır ise 17.8 mm (5-30) idi. Reeksizyon 1 hastaya gerekti ve aynı seansta yapıldı. Sonuç: Rhomboid flep rekonstrüksiyonu tümör meme oranı büyük veya cilde yakın tümöre sahip erken meme kanseri hastalarında meme koruyucu cerrahinin uygulanmasına yardımcı olabilir.
